Re. RFID system for kelkar library at IIT Kanpur
Dear Mr Vijayanand, Sometime back I had done the homework of implementing rfid system in Pillai College of Engg New Mumbai we could not finalise it for the want of funds.In my opinion Keltron RFID LMS is a better solution and which is well integrated with Koha .VTLS may be costlier in Indian conditions.

Vanakam Sir, I could understand the first point which you have mentioned.. why LIS faculty should not sit as expert in the selection of Librarian? Sincerely, B Vijayalakshmi, Librarian, Sankar Polytechnic College (Autonomous) Tirunelveli

Dear Dr Mishra,
What you have said is absolutely true and right. Recently even IIT Bombay had diluted the Librarian's post in terms of designation, scale / grade pay, etc.
Previously, on this same forum I had put my observations on the issue of flouting rules for recruiting librarians. I would like to add two more points here:- 1). Many times we see LIS faculty sitting as experts in the selection of librarians which is not right; 2). There is no response or action from the National and other state-level Library associations whenever such irregularities are noticed.
It is high time that every LIS professional irrespective of their roles should protest and write to the concerned departments like the UGC, AICTE, MHRD, CSIR, etc to put an end to such irregularities.

Dear all, Recent few advertisements is an alarm for Not library professionals but existence of Libraries itself in future. IIIT Allahabad and IIT Kanpur appointing Assistant Registrar <http://www.iitk.ac.in/new/data/recruitment/Advt_No_1_ 2018/Advt-No-1-2018-Final.pdf> and Dy. Registrar <https://www.iiita.ac.in/downloads/announcements/uploads/Rec295.pdf> in libraries and made library science related qualifications under essential or desirable. Seems the perception of libraries and librarian???s has been changed drastically in academic community/society the reasons may be as follows: 1. Some of the LIS professionals could not serve the community better. 2. Some of the LIS professionals attitude/behavior was totally against the ethics and irritable to users of library? 3. Some of the professionals enjoyed highly paid salary without doing nothing and exploited their subordinates/resources/facility given to them. 4. Many could not upgrade their libraries and themselves as per the current trend and information seeking behavior of users. 5. Top leaders/experts could not appoint suitable candidates for the post and many cases where they might have appointed their incapable near and dears. 6. Rise of electronic media/resources which crossed the four walls of the libraries and reached in the hands of users without any assistance from LIS professionals/Libraries. Apart from other their may be many wrong/correct perception about the libraries because of which i can see peoples are now discussing the relevance of libraries itself rather than librarians. This is not an alarm for non-teaching library professionals but for teaching LIS professionals (Professor???s) too because if their is no library than their is no department of libraries too?
You may read the story at here too: http://mishravk.com/2018/05/existence-library/
Thanks and have a nice library ahead !
